I use Excel and Openofficeorg Calc on linux.
I've been learn as-you-go on both for years.
I'm tempted to say that Excel<>Access might be more integrated than OpenCalc<>Mysql, but I have little sense, objectively, of my place on the learning curve for both.
Learning curve; like there's the 'add secondary Y axis' in Openofficeorg Calc -- have I just not found that under Excel?

If you need big fancy charts with zoomable / navigable views + movie-like playback in pageflipped stereoscopic and enjoy writing low level file format conversions: Vis5D, McIdas-X / McLite. Perhaps some day there will be a little check box in Excel or Openoffice that says 'export 3D chart to *.wrl'

Mostly I doodle on white paper with a black pen.
